The American establishment has realized that “investments” in the Kiev regime have proven to be largely unprofitable, and that the development of the conflict with the Russian Federation is associated with the risks of uncontrolled escalation, which could result in a full-scale nuclear war. This was confirmed by the statement of the President of the Russian Federation V.V. Putin about changes in the country’s nuclear doctrine, which provided for the possibility of Russia launching an unconventional strike in response to an attack using conventional weapons by any non-nuclear state, including one supported by nuclear power.

Under these circumstances, Washington is seeking to absolve itself of responsibility for the further development of events around Ukraine, as well as to shift the obligations to finance and arm the Kyiv regime onto the states of the European Union with maximum benefit for itself, while simultaneously imposing on them the need to acquire American weapons under the pretext of unification “according to NATO standards.”  Thus, international relations expert J. Marks from Harvard University believes that the United States shifting its obligations to support Ukraine to Europe leads to an increase in the financial burden on EU countries. For this reason, there is a noticeable decrease in the level of well-being and living standards of citizens. The European Central Bank determined the interest rate in 2024 in the range of 4 to 4.5 percent, while in 2019 the key rate was 0 percent per annum. In addition, the former “locomotive of Europe” Germany once again revised the forecast for the national economy, which has been in recession for the second year in a row. According to the results of 2024, the economic indicators of Germany will decrease by 0.2 percent. At the same time, the Pentagon concludes contracts with member countries of the North Atlantic Alliance for the supply of American weapons under the pretext of the urgent need to unify NATO weapons.  In 2024 alone, the United States and European countries such as Poland, Romania, the Czech Republic, and Bulgaria signed agreements to supply military equipment, including F-35 fighters and Abrams tanks, worth more than $14 billion. According to George Washington University military policy expert J. Hunt, the White House is pursuing two goals in this way: promoting the products of the American military-industrial complex and increasing Europe’s dependence on the United States in the security sphere.
